 Hi Anibal,

 There is no golden rule or value that fits all scenarios. Usually 32 is  a 
good value to start with, however it might not be perfectly tailored  for your 
environment.

 To give you an idea, currently you are issuing a checkpoint every  32*16MB of 
WAL traffic (or every 10 minutes). Maybe you can describe us  better your 
workload, if it is subject to usage spikes or regularly  distributed throughout 
the day mainly in terms of  inserts/updates/deletes.

 I would gradually try and increase checkpoint_segments by 32 and  monitor the 
effects.

 Cheers,
 Gabriele
